Yes, I loathe John McCain. I've hated him since 2000, when he called me an "agent of intolerance." However, I still see him as preferable to Obama, so I plan to vote for him. I don't hate McCain simply because he's McCain (the defining characteristic of BDS).

BTW, how many 'praise McCain' points are you earning with the McCain campaign right now?

Yes, the outrage of an anonymous commenter on a blog is going to diminish the status of a presidential candidate.

Makes perfect sense.

You're in denial now. Ace of Spades is not just some run of the mill blog and you're a contributor. I guess we shouldn't worry about those lefty blogs either since they have no effect. Makes perfect sense.

So we should just slavishly follow the Maverick's every whim instead of trying to push the party's nominee in a more conservative direction? Watching McCain's internet fans try to shut down every criticism of the guy with "oh, but your foul words are hurting the party!" is getting rather tiring.

After all the time spent attacking McCain on this blog, your vote is essentially meaningless.

What good is pushing McCain anywhere right now if he doesn't get elected. And I don't think derogatory Haikus are the type of constructive criticisms you should be trying to use to make your point. Your logic is tiresome.

Slubs point is well taken. McCain has moved his position on drilling because of a few million angry voices, and his chances are better as a result. We can speak out and change the candidates position. Also six caribou signed up for McCain '08 yesterday. Could this be the beginning of the ANWR awakening?

But I would rather have a clean government than one where quote First
Amendment rights are being respected that has become corrupt. If I had
my choice, I'd rather have the clean government."-John McCain in May of 2006

BTW- if you think Ace, the cobloggers or hell any conservative blogger is so damn influential, did you notice we couldn't stop McCain from getting the nomination. Surely we'd have more influence during a Republican primary season than the general election.

I should make it clear that I think he's more than fair game after he is elected.

Ah, yes. Let's rant at him after all our leverage is gone. That there is some sterling logic.

Maybe we should just shut down all the phone lines to all officials after they've been elected. We gots no leverage anyway. And what was the celebration 'conservative' were doing after Miers withdrew her nomination? Logic indeed.

First, I have no problem if you take the position you are not voting for McCain and that he would be almost as bad as Obama. Where I have a problem is declaring you are going to vote for someone, presumably because you want him to win or want the other guy to lose and then proceed to bash him unmercifully in full view of everyone to the detriment of your goal. I thought liberals were supposed to be the dumb ones.

Tell me something, how much did your calls to McCain affect his votes on illegeal immigration? Yea, I thought so. But you think you will have more power to affect him when he is President? oh, ok.

And what was the celebration 'conservative' were doing after Miers withdrew her nomination? Logic indeed.

I can't speak for anyone else, I'm not much of a pack animal, but I was happy as shit. She has no more business on the SC than I do. But if you think getting Miers scotched, a woman who was equally disapproved of on both sides of the aisle is the same thing as opening up drilling in federal territories, which Democrats, who control both houses of Congress, will never support, then your prescription needs adjustment.

As always, it's the RINO's who don't want Obama to be President, while the "real" conservatives are more than willing to accept him. I'm sure you're all right and he'll magically produce that new Reagan, being omnipotent and all. Enjoy your pity party ladies.

McCain always does the right thing, if it's explained to him properly.

I'll build the Damn Fence

I'll Drill off the Shore

I do not trust and do not like this man. And YESYES YES 'bama is worse.

Breaking news, Rush Limbaugh is throwing his hat into the ring at the convention. All votes in primaries are subject to redetermination. Outcome, Rush, and VP Candidate Ann Coulter are officially on the ticket. Unanimous vote from teh delegates. McCain off to somewhere to have a cold beer with the wifey. oBAMA and his VP choice John (I'm not gay) Edwards concede election under the condition that W's term is shortened and the new president takes office before Haloween. Remember you heard it here first, and if the AP grabs it, Ace can keep the cash.
